Auto-complete path/file names

Post by JML13 »

I have activated "Auto-complete path/file names" for Address Bar.

If I write "C" or "C:" in the address bar, the auto-complete mechanism propose to me "C:/" (instead of "C:\") and if I hit enter at this time I have the error "Couldn't find location C:/"

And the drop-down list shows me many entries like "file:///c:/..........". If I select one of them, XY opens an explorer window (for folders) or the associated program (for files).

Is it a normal behaviour ? Or have I something that is not correct in my configuration ?

This is indeed normal behavior. Explorer does it just the same. At least here.

Yes, you're right.
And do you know how to disable that in explorer (but I do not want to disable auto-complete mechanism) ?

No, I don't, sorry.
